Hmm, e.G. the German Railway http://wap.bahn.de is still
using wml 1.0 so what will help me an XHTML browser to
use this wappage? XHTML browser wouldn't help - it would
be nice that OpenMoko helps to use even Old (dead) WML.

Ok the railway have also page with XHTML as well: 
http://mobile.bahn.de/

With apt-cache search I have only found Amaya this is
a XHTML webbrowser and editor - needs several libs
and 21,6 MB additional space...
And I haven't found the config to disable editing pages,
and maby because of WYSIWYG it has some graphicaly errors...

And which XHTML browser is lightwight and good to use
with OpenMoko/Neo1973?

When I look into the source - I would like to see a
client/server splitted XHTML browser that on a server
runs the backand and only the frontend on the Neo.
- pictures and same pages could be cached on the Neo
- the transmission beween back-front end compressed
- and long pages would be transmitted in parts (on
  demand)

Some average using profile of XHTML e.G. for Germany
- bahn.de (railway)
- tagesschau.de (news)
could fill the cache automaticaly when having a cheap/free
internet connection....

Ah and saving pages as an unvariable document, the chance to
beam (via Bluetooth) and printing would be something that
not every phones support.

At last - train/news/weather informations - our Neo1973 could
become a wireless mailbox for other users, where they could
download the train/news/weather informations that I had downloaded.
Maybe this could create trouble with lawers, let us call this proxy
and let us select some pages to publish with our proxy.

So a smart XHTML editor would become interesting, as well,
e.G. for changing the front page or adding some additional
informations.

The Bluetooth devicename could have up to 255 chars?
"OpenMailbox-with-News-Wether-information-free-to-login"
